Bench must re Upheld. \ corrupt or
partial judiciary is a curse to any
country.
Encouragement should be given to
immigration Tor the two-fold purpose OF
developing the natural resources OF the
Kingdom and rendering possible the es-
adjustment Of new industries.
The public lands should be admins
tered for the public good and not for the
enrichment OF individuals.
A well-considered and feasible policy
OF improvement works should be adopted
and adhered TO.
The United States being the natural
market for Hawaiian products, public
policy should be directed toward strength
ening existing political and commercial
relations with that country.
Honolulu should be proclaimed free
port, and increased facilities provided for
the repair of shipping and the handling
of merchandise.
steamship and cable communication
with the Pacific Coast and Australia
should be encouraged.
Sugar being the staple product OF the
country, those engaged in its production
are entitled to have their interests studied
by the Government.
The public debt should not be in
creased. There is ample revenue-if an
honest accounting were made of receipts
to pay interest on loan, defray reason
able expenses of Government, and carry
out progressive system OF public works.
The public school system should be
sustained and improved. Hawaiian
children should be taught exclusively in
English to equip them for the duties OF
life. Instruction in English alone should
be similarly given to children of foreign
parentage.
The sanitation, lighting and improve
ment of the city of Honolulu are matters
of paramount importance.
A policy of interior development, by
means of highways, etc, will be advo.
Gated. In brief, all matters and things
tending to the benefit OF the country, and
to the promotion of peace, order and
good government, will have an advocate
and exponent in the PACIFIC COMMERCIAL
ADVERTISER.

relies for public confidence and support.

TIE LUNATIC ASYLUM.

We welcome our evening cOntemTor-
any as d convert 10 our opinion regarding
the necessity for appointing trained
female nurse at the LunatiC Asylum.
over q year ago the ADVERTISER pre-
sented the facts before the public, and
appealed to the ladies OF Honolulu 70
take an interest in the most unhappy
and unfortunate Of their sex immured in
the Insane Asylum. In response to our
appeal, we were reprimanded by news
paper, which at that day pr0fessed to
speak on behalf OF the Christian ladies
of Honolulu, for suggesting that they
had any interest or duty in respect OF the
management Of a national charitable in
stitution. Nothing was done towards
a change OF system, although from
time to time the ADVERTISER brought
forward the subject. No matter how
delicate the service needed by the female
inmates, it is left to be performed by
male Kanaka, without supervision. This
wholly revolving state OF things produced
a very strong impression, We know,
upon the mind Of distinguished Aneri-
can journalist who recently visited this
country, and we should not be surprised
to find his conclusions presented to the
world in forcible language. Be this as it
may, we again urge upon the authorities
the duty and necessity Of appointing a
trained female nurse for the female ward
in the Lunatic Asylum. No matter
what it may cost, the money will be well
spent if proper help be secured. A Gov
eminent Commission has been appointed
to investigate scandalous reports re-
garding this institution. We do not
know the scope of their investigation,
but We hope that they will take note of
this point, and satisfy themselves of the
necessity for the empIoymentof a trained
female nurse.

NATURALIZATION.
Interview with Consul General Put.
nam.

There being a good deal of uncertainty
! as to the effect the oath to the new Con-
stitution will have uron American citi-
! zenship, a reporter Of the ADVERTISER
called upon Consul General Putnam to
| see if he could get some light upon the
subject from that gentleman. The re
suit is embodied in the following inter
view:
Report er-Mr Consul General, can
you inform the American readers OF the
ADVERTISER what effect their takinL the
| oath prescribed under the new Constitu-
ton will have upon their citizenship as
Americans?
Consul General do not see that the
status is at all changed. The new oath
is more liberal to torei 1ners than the
denization OATH" and under the de-
cisiOn Of Mr.. Fre.in 5huysen, Secretary Of
State. in the appeal OF P. c. Jones O.
this city Tor American protection, al
though he had taken the oath Of deniza-
ton, the Secretary decided that if an
American retained his allegiance TO the
United States. and so declared in his
declaration OF foreign denizenship, ne
did not forfeit any Of his rights or privi-
leges as an American citizen; that he
would be entitled to the same protection
as though he had taken no oath If
action for the United States, the slight
change of form in the new oath will not
alter it. The principle is, that if Ameri-
cans abroad are invited by the country
in which they are temporarily present
to enjoy the privileges and prerogatives
possessed by its own citizens, with the
expressed stipulation that they are 10
renounce no allegiance to the home gov
eminent, no injury can accrue to the
United States, and it is simply a com
pact between the person and this Gov
eminent.
Reporter - Has this question been
settled by the L. S. Courts?
Consul General Putnam-It has not.
do not know any other country which
grant these privileges to foreigners, and
no test case has been brought be-
fore the Court.
Reporter-Then the decision of the
State Department is final.
Consul General Putnam-Not so. The
Courts and succeeding Administrations
can reverse it.
Reporter-D Does not this practice make
the foreigner citizen of two countries
at the same time?
Consul General Putnam-Practicall
so; but the real allegiance is under the
oath to the home Government, and is
permanent. The fealty TO Hawaii is
subservient to it, and can be laid off at
pleasure. These are of course only in
dividual conclusions Mr. Merrill has
given the question more investigation
than myself, and can do it greater
justice.
Reporter-Do you expect decision
on the new oath before the election?
Consul General Putnam-We may get
it, but l fear the time is too short.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1887-08-10
THE NATURALIZATION QUESTION.

Elsewhere We publish an interview
with Consul General Putnam, in refer
cnce to the effect of the oath to the new
Constitution upon the rights of Amer
lean citizenship. The Consul General
has stated the case very clearly, but it
will be observed that there is no judicial
ruling to guide him. Mr.. Frelinghuy-
sen, as Secretary of State, passed upon
the case presented to him, and the prin-
ciple laid down by him holds good until
reversed or modified by one of his sue
Cessors, or by a Court of competent iuris-
dictiOn in the States. But as we under
stand the point involved in this case OF
Mr.. P. G. Jones, it did not touch the
right to vote at an election in the United
States, and this is the vital issue in the
present case. 1t would be very salts
factory if an authoritative reply could be
received to the inquiry on this subject
addressed to the State Department by
the Minister Resident before the cleo
ton, because the doubt and uncertainty
attaching thereto may prevent some
who would otherwise vote from taking
part in the election. But whatever I'M
certainty there may be regarding Amer
lean citizens, none whatever can exist in
the case OF the subjects OF any European
power. Their Governments do not rec
ognize the principle Of divided allegiance.
Nevertheless, men who make this coun-
try their home should be prepared to as
sumo all the duties and obligations Of
citizenship.
